And so comes the fall crisp and cool all colors and leaves
it comes to stadiums and fields in victory and loss
fans who wear their hearts on their sleeves
in the crisp autumn air the football they toss
Fields of green and sometimes blue or red
seats awash with the colors of colleges near and far
hoping it’s your team that comes out ahead
feeling as if your college is the day’s star
Names that echo against the bright fall sky
Dawgs, Gators, Sooners, Huskers, Tide
soaring on every play feeling that TD high
each fan bursting with team pride
The boys of fall are back on the field time now to play
cheer for your team put on the colors show your team pride
a brand new season starts with just this one day
get ready for the ride
